Coun. Nolan, cited the July 10th Flag Football sign-up and noted that some 300 children were participating. Turning to the Library he announced that Tracy Davis had won a "IPod" in a recent contest and he cited programs such as "Walk The Plank", "Game Night" and the chess program.Coun.

Coun. Shaak & Gorham had no reports. Coun. Visceglia reminded the public that tax bills would be mailed out by the end of the week.
